THE NECESSITY OF WISDOM

“And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom,...” 
Exodus 31:3(KJV)

Wisdom can be defined as accurate insight. So if you are functioning in wisdom, you should be minimizing your mistakes.

When you are functioning with accurate insight, you will be able to do things accurately without any formal training. For example in Genesis 41:33-36,  Joseph not only interpreted Pharaoh's dreams, he also was able to proffer how Pharaoh and the whole nation of Egypt should preserve food that will last for more than fourteen years. This is because the food will first be preserved and stored for the first seven years of plenty after which they will also have to last another seven years of famine when they will be used to sustain the whole of Egypt and all countries who also came to buy food from Egypt.

Joseph was able to know and do these things without any formal learning or training because the wisdom of God was at work in him giving him accurate insight and administrative intelligence.

whatever is given to you as we see in the life of Joseph in Genesis 39:4-6, “And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand. And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field. And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favoured.”

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you because your wisdom is working in me, giving me accurate insight and administrative intelligence beyond my formal learning and training in Jesus Name. Amen.
